But, Ohanaeze in a statement issued by its spokesman, Mazi Chuks Ibegbu, on Wednesday night said, “The attention of Ohanaeze Ndigbo is drawn to a recent media report purpoting that the apex Igbo body and Barr Nnia Nwodo fixed its Imeobi on Thursday , January 2019 to counter the Presidential rally of the APC or President Mohammadu Buhari. There is no truth in that .

“The Imeobi date was fixed long before the event the APC South East was talking about.

“Besides, Ohanaeze Ndigbo is free to fix any day it deems fit for its events without reference to what government officials or party officials are doing since we are not answerable to them but to Ndigbo.

“We, however, consider the opinions of our sons and daughters in all political persuation for as long as such opinions are made in good time and that was why we decided to adjust the time of the Imeobi to 4.00pm same Thursday to accommodate these opinions.

“It is, therefore, uncharitable for anybody to purport that the fixing of the date was geared to truncate Mr President’s visit to Enugu. There is nothing like that and we demand apology from pedlars of such rumour”.
